Testing the Fabrics

On February 7, the students worked with Dr. Michielsen to conduct histeresis tests on their fabric samples. These tests allowed them to test for stretch and recovery, as they do not want permanent distortion to occur in the product.

However, the tests did not yield proper results due to some problems with the machine. The students will test the samples again next week, at which point they will determine the fabrics to be used in their prototypes.
